Three Quotes from His Holiness The 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet

Post by Barry » October 21st, 2009, 3:33 pm

"The only true guardian of peace lies within: a sense of concern and responsibility for your own future and an altruistic concern for the well-being of others."

"Contrary to what people might imagine, the role of an oracle is not confined to predicting the future. They are approached as protectors and healers, and their primary mission is to help people to practice the Dharma, that is, the Buddha's teachings."

"There are 10 subject areas, of which the five "higher" subjects are: the art of healing, Sanskrit, dialectics, arts and crafts, and the philosophy of religion. The five secondary subjects are poetry, astrology, dramatic arts, literary style, and language studies."


Peace,
Barry
PS: Thank you, Tenzin Gyatso, for everything and everyone I ever loved.
